Anybody else here think
There’s got to be thunder?
Anyone else here think
We need a storm:
When sledgehammer lightning
Goes down, goes down hard,
Again and again until
Tense skies groan and ring;
Until the concrete wheel bleeds
And the stone blind lady sees?
Anybody else here ready to
Take up the call ?
“Being ignored is not the same
As not needing to be heard:
Justice ain’t being served here!”

Storms bring changes and chaos. These whirlpool the feelings as much as they do with clouds in the sky. But after all this, the air becomes clearer and eyes sparkle with anticipation of fresh tomorrow.
